Things I've tried:
- Reading McKeown's Essentialism. It had some interesting ideas but it was also a very frustrating read.
- Reading The ONE Thing. It also had interesting ideas, but it didn't solve my problem.
- Understanding that I'm 'simply noticing the commitments I have'. This would be one of the GTD responses.
Things that could work if I did them differently:
- Values writing, WOOP, or the higher Horizons of Focus.
Things I'll try:
- Using Tiny Habits with GTD. In fact, this post itself is an attempt to get potential Tiny Habits!
The idea of an Archive is to have the thoughts collected for reference somewhere regardless of source. I mark tasks with Rejected (will not do) or Retired (no value anymore, too late) because I find it more expressive than Archived information.
Never would work too.
